Thanks to grammar checkers, it has never been easier to edit. They help you create fluent posts without mistakes.

What are Grammar Checkers?

Well, this question has a pretty straightforward answer. Grammar checkers automatically check your text for grammar mistakes.

All writers should proofread before publishing. You might miss some errors, as humans aren’t perfect. To lighten the burden, we believe that there’s no harm in finding a helping hand.

Some tools even have advanced functionality like checking writing style, repetitive words, dangling modifiers, etc.

Grammar checkers are easy to use, some even available as browser extensions. So every time you write on WordPress or Google Docs, the tool automatically highlights errors in the text.

There are web-based apps too —  with those you need to copy/paste or write content in the application itself.

Hemingway Editor

Hemingway editor homepageCreated in 2013, the Hemingway Editor works slightly differently compared to the other two checkers. Hemingway is only web-based, so you can’t directly edit your text in the WordPress editor.

It works more as a style editor than grammar checker; you get a personal “coach” while writing. The Hemingway tool highlights grammatical errors, adjectives, and text readability levels in different colors.

Hemingway also highlights lengthy and complex sentences, suggesting a simpler word, and marking adverbs and passive voice.

In most cases, you need to rewrite those sentences to make them clearer manually.

What is more, Hemingway allows you to format text. You can use bold, italic, headings, and directly copy your text to WordPress or Medium without losing the format.
